Bus Café Erbil The Bus Café Erbil is modernly designed to serve the young specially and any person who visit them for Hot and Cold Drinks as well Sweets, located in the capital city of Erbil-Kurdistan. This Project has been open since 15 of January, 2019. From its beginning many people visited and liked the concept, and supported them in their way. Just as in Erbil, there is a Bus Café Slemani. The idea comes from 5 friends. Two of them stared in Slemani and the rest are working in Erbil. The process of opening the bus took a lot, because there is not any similar project in the city and they couldn’t get official permission from government of Erbil easily. After a lot of hard work, day and night, now it is open every day from 4:00 PM to 12:00 AM. The climate inside the bus is friendly and there is a small bookshelf for which many people bring them as a gift. Finally, these guys said that, even though they finished school and university, with the problems facing the region, specifically lack of jobs in their careers, they could be creative and do this project. So they are sending a message to all the young people around Kurdistan specially and Worldwide, just think different, be different, and you will find the result.

Last week we had the pleasure of having 3 of our awesome #alumni run our first Alumni Workshop in Tel Aviv. We started off with @morikroz who taught us how to practice mindful listening and continued with the amazing team of the Karaoki Talkie initiative! Have you ever presented a slide you haven’t seen before? If not, you should. Thank you to all who were involved! To our lovely participants who came from throughout Israel and Palestine, to our amazing lecturers, to Venn for letting us use their amazing space and to Cafe Shapira for the great food! It was an incredible day filled with laughter, studying and getting together. #onceyalaalwaysyala #yalafamily #publicspeaking #peace #israel #palestine

I took these pictures during my first time traveling to Chefchaouen - a city in North of Morocco I have never visited before. I happened to go there after I experienced a really daunting, dark period in my life that caused me a lot of problems at school, with my health, with my social activities and even my personal life. It was hard thing to keep this to myself, for I was boiling on the inside- so in my trial to open up, I ended up telling this to an acquaintance who suggested I traveled. He was right! It was an opportunity to travel on my own and discover how far I can go and how I can adapt. Sometimes, there comes a time that we lose track of where we are and where we want to go. The more we search we find emptiness on the inside out. Finding solace and guidance again takes enough courage to admit that something is wrong. A realization I made is that our lives belong to us... It is the sum of our decisions. Decisions that should be made not on the expense of our health nor our happiness. Two H words that seem to sum up much of what life can be about. If these two are present, then everything else will to follow. BLUE has a magical effect on the heart 💙💙 .. That's a fact - and if it's your favorite color like it is the case for me, I assure you it will spit on your its magical spell and get you hypnotized! -Tlaytmass Saou, Morocco, YaLa Citizen Journalist #Morocco #Blue #Chefchaouen #Travl #DiscoverYourself #DiscovertheRegion #YaLaCitizenJournalist #CitizenJournalism

This place is called Yafo, Jaffa, Yaffa... يَافَا‎, יפו. It has a long history! Some even called it 'The oldest city in the world. (Archaeological evidence shows that the site of Jaffa was inhabited around 7500 BCE). Thousands of photos wouldn't be enough to show all its facets. . . . . . . . . . #يَافَا‎ #jaffa #yafo #yaffo #יפו #telavivyafo #תלאביביפו #discovertheregion #yala #streetart #urban #middleeast #newancient #graffiti #history #coexista . . .
